(Pardon my insensitive language — this is my way of coping).
A few years ago while casually wandering YouTube I stumbled across a video [1] of a young girl explaining that her cancer is at a point of no return.
Her name is Sophia Gall and she's from Australia.
Apparently, she had cancer previously and underwent treatment. Unfortunately the cancer recurred.
In the video she's pretty much scared, crying and hopeless.
She did mention she'll be traveling around. Eventually, there were videos of her from Paris and a few other places. She seemed pretty cheerful then.
Months — maybe a year — later I remembered her and seeked her YouTube channel. From the comments on her latest video that was released several months before, I learnt that she passed away.
In her last few videos, apart from the physical pain she was surprisingly composed. Like, she had accepted her fate.
I don't know why I said all that here. That whole thing about Sophia had thoroughly moved me.

(While searching for her video, I discovered that there's a whole bunch of youtubers with cancer.)
- lcall 4y agoThat kind of thing is indeed moving. I have learned for myself that life, existence, doesn't end at death. Our choices matter, and there is hope for good things to come, depending on our further choices. More at my web site (in profile, nothing for sale, tech-simple site). (ps: the good things to come can include family ties and significant learning & growth: better, I would say, than this life, again depending on our choices.)
